It is questionable to him. questions why certain things are done, and how. In regard to the election of a chief for the Moose Lake Indians in Northâ€" Manitoba, a despatch from The Pas, Manitoba last week, as published l in several newspapers gives interesting | details of how the Indians feel about | elections and some maiters connected ! with them. This despatch reads as followsâ€" "Speaking of elections, one of the | strangest ever held in Canada took | place recently at the Moose Lake Inâ€" idian reserve in Northern Manitoba when the Swampy Crees were called upcn to choose a new chief. For the first time in their lives they heard of the secret ballot and took ballot i;:zpcrs in their hands. They enjoyea the novelty immensely. But they cast !t-heir ballots much differently than | their white brothers. Their ballots woere blank papers. They did not even fcarry the names of the candidates so there was no need of having a pencil | to make a cross. The reason for the blank papers was simple. Few of the Indians could read. They wouldn‘t :know the names of the candidates if they saw them. So they had a pink slip a paper to represent one aspirant for honors and a white slip of paper to represent the other cadidate. _ â€"_"This was not the only unusual thing about the election. When the Indian agent asked them if they would like to have some political speechss theâ€" canâ€" didates said they did not need to tell i the tribe what they would do if elected, for the members already knew what they were like anyway. Theâ€" voters on the other hand said they had no use for longâ€"winded speeches and so the polls were opened without any campaign. ‘ "The election took place in the Inâ€". dian school near Tom Lamb‘s trading. post. About 60 men and boys crowded. into the little school room. A of ambitious youths who had nst! reached the age of 21 tried to cast balâ€" lots and were told to leave the room. OQOutside of that everything was quite orderly. No women were allowed. in during the voting, but they showed. their interest by crowding at the doorsi and windows. * | | ! l t | "When the ballots were counted it was found that Philip had 14 votes and Jacob had drawn 13. Philip was declared elected. He made a short speech and thanked his supporters. Te added that he would work to inâ€" crease the efficiency of the band and raise the standard of living. â€" Jacob said he would he!p him." "The Indians see fun in almost evâ€" erything and they enjoyed voting imâ€" mensely. In fact so much so that they would have liked to have prolonged it all day although there were only 27 voters and they were at the polls as scon as they opened. "â€"mach Indian was given a white slip and a pink slip. He took both in the cloakroom and placed one in the hat and returned and gave the other to the Indian agent. This kept check on the ballots. pink Now that the election is over there should be more interest in elections in the abstract even if there is less in clections in the concrete. In view ot the fact that some thousands of Inâ€" dians were added this year, the reaction of the Indians to elections may have special point. Althougn many of the Indians referred to, proâ€" bably most of them have no votes, as they are treaty Indians and so do not have the use of the ballot at Dominâ€" ion elections, still there are elections at which they are entitled to vote and some of thése elections appear to have decidedly modern toushes as well as more oldâ€"fashioned ideas. For. inâ€" stance, practically all the Indian tribes elect their own chiefs, and some 6f them recently have adopted the plan of ballot papers. This innovation is said to be greatly appreciated by the Indians who take a rare interest and delight in the ballots. Some time ago there was an election of a chief among the Indians of the Moose Lake reserve in. Northern Manitoba. One of the innovations adopted was the use of ballots. The Indians liked this idea, but they would have none of that other feature of the white man‘s election, the campaign speech. It would be inâ€" teresting to learn the reaction of the Indians to that other modern election weapcon, the election cigar. The Inâ€" dians might imagine the cigars were a scheme of the white man to assure a happy outcome of the votingâ€"if a man wouldn‘t vote for you, you simply gave him a cizgar and he died before the riolling day. Perhaps, to the Inâ€" dian mind the whole matter would seem simple enough.

This article does tnot recount the stories of many of the Igold nuggets of the North, the only touched on being the famous 1 Crocsus nugget. More is said about the silver nuggets. The article, howâ€" | ever, is an interesting one and as given | herewith in full as appearing in The [ Northern Miner last week:â€" | _ _ the lurid stories of mining camps ,the ‘"nugget" figured largely. The | bearded men of the creeks stalked into | the saloons and threw them on the bar, demanding drinks for the house. The | desert rats came in from the scorching ‘mesas, displaying chunks of yellow metal, starting wild stampedes and !staking rushes. The waterâ€"worn goldâ€" en pebbles of the Yukon River bars poured out to astonish the world. ; "Australia was the coiner of the word "nugget." The country provided many of the famous ones of history. In 1869 two miners working on the last of a grub stake dug up a huge chunk of gold which weighed 210 pounds troy, yielding 2,268 ounces, worth $45,000. This is believed to be the largest single mass of gold ever found. They called it "Welcome stranger." "This was another piece of "float," as it turned out. Like most acquisitions of sudden wealth, it caused a lot of trouble. The exact location of the find was in a position which led to dispute., several claim owners in the neighbourâ€" hood entering actions to receive it. There was a great deal of speculation as to where this float came from, and there was some hectic prospecting done in the area during the summer. The general conclusion was that it rode down in a glacial movement from somewhere up around the Kerr Lake district, famous for its surface exâ€"posâ€" ures of rich ore. There was the "Stiâ€" ver Sidewalk" at the Crown Reserve, "The exact weight of this piece is not known, but the eyes of Cobalt oldâ€"timâ€" ers gleam when they talk of it The road to Temiskaming at that time was a pretty rough trail, and over it hunâ€" dreds of men tramped to glimpse a property which could yield such a speâ€" cimen. The nugget was almost solid silver. As those that saw it said, it wasn‘t a piece of rock with silver in it but a piece of silver with rock in it. "Then there was the later Price disâ€" covery, another enormous chunk of silâ€" ver, in hitherto neglected ground in Gillies Limit, below Cross Lake.. The claim was largely gravel, and had been staked and restaked. The latest owâ€" ners blundered across the chunk one day while poking around the plain. It was not hard to find, sitting up with moss on it, sunning itself. This nugâ€" get also caused great excitement. It was drawn into town on a "jumper‘ and deposited in front of Cliff Moore‘s drug store, where it played to capacity houses. Fortunately. we have a picture of this one, taken in front of the Parâ€" liament Buildings, at Toronto, where it lies today. "With silver it is somewhat different. Some wonderful pieces of the white metal were found in Cobalt in the early days. There was, for instance, the great chunk of silver found at the Litâ€" tle Gem property, out near the Temisâ€" kaming Mine. It was hauled into Coâ€" balt by a team of horses, escorted by a popâ€"eyed crowd and surrounded on Cobalt Square by hundreds of miners. This now rests in the museum of the Ontario Department of Mines, at Toâ€" ronto. Oldâ€"timers will recall that Sol White was the promoter of this comâ€" pany. His office in Cobalt was besiegâ€" ed by eager buyers of the stock. Sad to say, it turned out to be a piece of "float‘"‘ and nothing else was ever found on the property. "Our Northern QOntario gold mines do not lend themselves to nugget findâ€" ing.

It may be anâ€" swered that a Nugget is a pretty good sort of newspaper published at North Bay. But that is not the answer! The dictionary definitions of a nugget are as follows:â€""A lump; especially one of the larger lumps of native gold found in the diggings." "A lump, as of metâ€" al." There are some people who insist on considering a nugget as being of gold. The first definition given from standard dictionaries as above seems to lean that way. The following deâ€" finition, "A lump, as of metal," is more in keeping with the general practice of the meaning of the use of the word "nugget." As a matter of fact, ‘"nugâ€" gets‘" in this North Land have been chiefly of silver, so far as popular usage of the word is concerned. At the same time there have been examples of gold ore that certainly deserved the name of nuggets. Apart from the Croesus mine there have been score of other mines in this North that have producâ€" ed nuggets of gold that were most imâ€" pressive. The Hollinger has had them by the score. So has the McIntyre, Dome, Vipond, Newray and other mines. The Dome‘s gold sidewalk was famous in its day. Nearly every prosâ€" pector has a tie pin or a watch charm. | for instance. To this day you can ' drive out and from your car survey the spot where the silver sidewalk once ]shcne, drawing its thousands of visiâ€" | tors.

There is nothing so deâ€" pressing as the sight of a hole in the lground from which somebody else has removed the wealth. Such holes abound in the camp, and, in fact, the unwary | stroller is likely to find himself at the ‘bottom of some of these openings which were once purses full of rich silâ€" ver. "The Trout Creek gold showing at Swastika startled the North two years ago. It was jewellery shop ore,, on surface. Specimens from the Rouillard in Red Lake were tiepin stuff. But of nuggets in the meaning of the placer mining we have none in Northern Onâ€" tario.‘"‘ "The closest approach nugget mining the Ontario North ever saw was at the aptlyâ€"named Croesus, near Matheson, in Munroe township. The surface showing there was so rich that it was covered with a plank deck, boltâ€" ed to the rock. Even then a lot of it got away. Prospectors have related that in blasting the first holes great chunks of. gold flew into the bush, and cculd be picked up by careful searchâ€" ers for weeks after. Dear Sirâ€" Re Roads in Mountjoy. In connection with your memorandum handed to the Honourable the Prime Minister with regard to the situation in Mountjoy township so far as roads are concerned. I may say that the Honourable the Premier is very much interested in the matter and has given instructions to have the situation lookâ€" ed into immediately, and I am toâ€"day writing to the District Engineer of this Department to visit the township and make a report. When Hon. G. Howard Ferguson visâ€" ited here some weeks ago a delagation of the settlers in Mountjoy wished to interview the Premier in regard to the lack of roads in that township whicn has ‘now been open to settlement for some seventeen years. Mr. A. F. Kenâ€" ning, M.L.A., arranged for an interview for the delegation, and the premier gave some of his time to the matter after the mseting here. The purpose of the interview was chiefly to enlist the sprcial interest of the premier who is always ready to do anything that is fair for the:â€"North. F. M. Wallingâ€" ford was one of the spokesmen for the settlers and gave the premier a memâ€" crandum of the points the settlers were emphasizing in rekard to the ma‘tter, Apparently the delegation was successful in enlisting the special interest of the premier to judge from the following letter received last week by Mr. Wallingford from the Deputy Minister of Northern Developmentâ€" Toronto, Ont., July 22nd F.
